So I'm trying to design a new filtration set up here is what I need to do
Top tank 314 gallon(85"x36"x24")
Bottom tank 100 gallon(72"x18"x18"
Stand can only be 28" tall in order to get thru a 30" doorway
I need to filter both tanks on same filter.
I was thinking
A: put return pump into 100g pumping water up to top tank then the top tank draining thru a bio tower and dumping back into the 100
B: putting a small chamber into 100g where the top tank flows thru a filter sock that is placed in that chamber, then also the return pump in the 100g as well. Then pumping back up into an overhead sump that is filled with Seachem Matrix that dumps back into the top tank.
I'm looking for thoughts or other plans that I may have not thought of. I'm trying to keep it contained to one area so I really don't want to have a big sump sitting next to the tanks
Thanks
